Why Bet on Sarmiento?

After a complicated first phase, Sarmiento has had another bad start to the tournament. The team is struggling to find a way to get points in consecutive games, and as a result, they are in 19th place in the standings with a record of one win, one draw, and two losses.

On the other hand, it’s worth mentioning that not everything is negative for the Verde so far, as it accumulated three goals for and four against, meaning it can rely on its defense in difficult scenarios. However, they have to take a step forward in this home game to stay on the winning track.

Sarmiento comes into this matchday 5 after an excellent away win against San Lorenzo by 0-1.

Why Bet on Estudiantes?

On the other hand, Estudiantes is the defending champion of the Copa de la Liga after defeating Velez in the Grand Final on penalties by 4-3.

However, their title defense is not going as expected since, after four games, they have a record of two wins, one draw, and one loss, keeping them in seventh place in the table. Similarly, the Pincha is only three points behind the top of the table, so if it manages to start a positive streak from now on, it could challenge the top quickly.

Estudiantes come into this matchday on the back of a loss and a draw in their last two games played in local competition, the most recent being a 1-1 draw against Godoy Cruz. In addition, they also drew 1-1 against Gremio in the sixth round of the Copa Libertadores de América group stage.
